i'm leaving straight after tet. i know villages around ba be where they would love to have my stuff for free but getting a fridge freezer on the back of an old 110 honda for a 200km trip seems a bad idea.
If anyone knows any community nearer home [I am in Pho Yen, 50km north of Hanoi - everyone here seems better off than I!]. Repeat I only have motorcycle and quite a bit of heavy stuff.

I am going UK for at least three months and would like to leave some gear in store. if anyone knows of commercial or private possibility i would be grateful. nothing too valuable but it would cost me a lot to set up pots and pans/wardrobe/guitar/bike etc when i return.
search showed no results
thanks

Hi,
I tried finding this, but did not get any search results on here (though some on google)
Any ideas about the price for air purifiers? I saw there is an IQ air showroom in Syrena shopping mall, but can't find any prices online. Any ideas about the price for an air purifier for my bedroom?
Thanks a lot.

Hi there! I am moving to Hanoi in June with my husband, and I will be about 7.5 months pregnant at that point. I was hoping to have a home birth with a midwife, but I'm not finding a whole lot of info on that just from googling around. Are there midwives who make house calls in Hanoi? If so, where can I find that information?
Thanks in advance!

Is there anyone who can recommend to me:
1. American company in Hanoi (any field is fine, the bigger is better).
2. Vietnamese company produces products for America, also prefer in Hanoi/the North (any product is fine, the bigger is better).
This is for a filming project regarding relationship between America & Vietnam.
Any lead is appreciated.
It will be very helpful if you have direct contact with the person in charge.
Thanks,
Khuyen

Hi, I've done a search of TNH and the web in the hope of finding any kids karate/martial arts classes but haven't had much luck. There is a bit out their for teenagers but nothing for younger kids. Does anyone know of classes that will accept kids 5 years old? I'm open to any styles as I just want to get my boy in to it for the discipline. Thanks in advance. Scott.

Hi,
We have to move into a smaller apartment. A 1 bedroom apartment is fine but may not have enough space for our earthly belongings, materials and some equipment. This is after I have sold off surplus shelves etc. already.
Is there a place in Hanoi where it is possible to safely store some boxes?
